Where these numbers come from

These are handover targets stated by the developer, not completion certificates issued by the Dubai Land Department, and announced dates move. We do not publish a unit total for 2028 because our source does not carry a verified one: every project record in our catalogue reports its unit count as zero, so any total we printed would be an estimate wearing the clothes of a fact. That is the same gap behind the published figures for the 2027 pipeline disagreeing with each other by tens of thousands of units. What is counted above is projects, developers, areas and prices, taken from the 353 projects in our catalogue with a stated 2028 handover.

Common questions about 2028 handovers

How many off-plan projects hand over in Dubai in 2028?

353 projects in our register state a 2028 handover, 156 developers between them. The count is of publicly marketed projects with a stated delivery date, read from the developers' own listings and refreshed with them; a date can move, and the calendar shows the developer's current statement, not a completion certificate.

Which quarter of 2028 has the most handovers?

Q4 2028, with 122 of the 353 projects. By quarter: Q1 81, Q2 95, Q3 55, Q4 122.

Where are the 2028 handovers?

The districts with the most projects completing in 2028: Al Marjan Island (23), Dubai Islands (17), JVC (Jumeirah Village Circle) (15), Abu Dhabi (13), Dubailand Residence Complex (13), Bukadra (9), Dubai South (9), JVT (Jumeirah Village Triangle) (9), Emaar South (8), Mina Rashid (8), Palm Deira (8), The Valley (8), and 88 more districts.

What does a 2028 handover cost to buy into?

Advertised starting prices for 2028 completions begin at AED 449K across the 276 priced projects, from studios through 7 bedrooms. 81 of the 353 are marked sold out by the developer, so anything there is a resale. Prices are developer and agent asking prices, not Land Department transactions.

What happens if a 2028 handover is late?

No Dubai law sets a grace period; the twelve months the market repeats is a clause in the sale and purchase agreement, and the remedy is whatever that clause says. Buyer payments sit in a RERA-supervised escrow account under Law 8 of 2007 until then. Our handover delay guide sets out the rights that do exist in law.

A payment plan built around a 2028 completion is only as good as the date behind it. Talk to us before you commit to one.
